For the one person who didn't already know...

Current generation Xbox owners still holding out for more Xbox Dead or Alive titles are going to be disappointed. Dead or Alive 4 already saw its Xbox 360 debut at E3, and now Team Ninja's Tomonobu Itagaki has confirmed with Famitsu Xbox that DOA Code Cronus is officially an Xbox 360 title.

In explaining why the game's platform was switched, Itagaki first apologizes to fans (who've made this latest Dead or Alive the number one most-wanted current generation Xbox title in Japan), then reveals that actual development on the title didn't start until after the new systems started appearing. According to Itagaki, making a game -- DOA in particular -- on a system with lower specs would cause quite a bit of stress.

Of course, the game's appearance on Xbox 360 should come as a surprise to no one, as IGN Xbox has listed the title as a 360 game for quite some time now. However, the official Tecmo stance on the project, while being unclear prior to E3, is now set.
